Sorry, this didn't make it to the list...
Hello,
I am a software engineer working in the VoIP space. I am looking to change my career path and get into Computer Forensics.

It's not a fantasy - I don't speak from direct experience, but I've watched a couple of people try and have varied success.
First tip - try to be under 40 years of age. Many of the jobs in the U.S. are in the public sector, specifically LE, and getting hired after 40 as a LEO is difficult at best.
